Neuropsychology Without Limits: Expanding Horizons

Message from Niall Pender, Unai Diaz-Orueta, & Anna Adlam, 2026 INS Mid-Year Meeting Program Committee Chairs:

In a global context of challenges and threats to equality, diversity, and inclusion, that affects access to healthcare, research, and clinical practice, neuropsychology needs to play an active role in raising awareness of its current and potential contributions to approach these global challenges. Advances in diagnostics, assessments, and interventions, pushed by the latest technological developments and the use of artificial intelligence, have huge potential but progress must be inclusive and relevant to real-world needs. If we are aiming for a neuropsychology without limits, science needs to dialogue with real people and acknowledge the diverse challenges that they face.

This meeting, hosted by the International Neuropsychological Society, the Psychological Society of Ireland – Division of Neuropsychology, and the British Psychological Society – Division of Neuropsychology, will welcome contributions from across the globe that target the traditional topics related to diagnosis, assessment and rehabilitation of different populations (clinical and non-clinical) across the lifespan, with an emphasis on the challenges posed by technologies, on how neuropsychology can overcome inequalities and be truly inclusive from a gender, race, background and culture perspective.

Here in Dublin, we give you a Céad Míle Fáilte (a hundred thousand welcomes) to be part of a meeting that aims to look to the future of neuropsychology with fully open, diverse, and inclusive eyes.
